Topic: [News] The Sploder Informer (Read 8196 times)

Yesterday, a new feature was added to this forums consisting of awards. Unlike the previous forum, this feature seems to have more of a variety. The feature lets Lieutenants and higher to give out awards, including War Veterans. The awards a user receives will appear below the avatar when they comment, and if you click on a trophy-like picture, it will bring you to all of the user's awards with their descriptions. Unfortunately, the feature does not tell you who sent the award. At the moment, their are a total of 33 different types of awards.

Awards are meant to be awarded to users who deserve them. Users who ask for awards will not be getting any awards and just wasting their time. Awards are also supposed to be an accomplishment, not a bragging material. Any bragging on their awards will bring no more awards rewarded to the user. Additionally, only the previous forums uses background awards. This forums does not, read Geoff's fused discussion on how to make a background, it consists of adding the image BBcode in your location.

Recently, there have been a few threads where a user fake a situation, possibly for attention.

For example, there was a recent thread where they said their neighbor's house was on fire. The user also posted an image form the internet showing a house on fire, saying it was their neighbor's house. The image was fake obviously, since the image was linked to a product safety website. Faking a situation will not be tolerated, since it could cause choas or a flame war. You will not gain any respect from doing this either.

If there was danger near the user, it would be unintelligent to be on the computer rather than leaving their home. Additionally, i'm not pointing out all the events that are relevant to this. I just need you to get the message.

SGT2012 has started, standing for Sploder Gameshow Trials 2012. The gameshow starts with 30 users and each challenge, one by one will be eliminated. Soon, there will be one left and they will be the winner. Gameshow updates will appear in the Informer, so check this thread from time to time.

Let's review on what the new game creators are and the iOS games in making by Geoff. The following information is true and does not have any false information as well.

New Upcoming Sploder Game Creators

There are 2 new game creators that are coming up that were officially anounced a while ago. The first one is called the 'arcade scroller' being released first. The second game creator is another platformer creator. During new year's eve, Geoff actually came onto Tinychat (a website that allows video broadcasting) and showed a bit of the game creators that he's working on. Some users that was on during Tinychat defined the new platformer creator as 'more smooth' and 'less rough'. The release date for the game creators have not been announced yet.

The new game creators will be available on both web page and on Apple products. Apple products include iPhones, iPods, and iPads. No one is sure if it will be released for Android as well, or any other product. Since the new game creators are not an attachment to the available creators at the moment, most likely the updates after the creators will be an update to one of the 4 creators. When the game creators come out, it will have a cost of $0.99 when bought on the App store. It will be free when played on web page, since it's been shown that all game creators on web is free. Additionally, it will be most likely that the updates given to the 2 creators in the App store will be free.

Notice, details on the Arcade Scroller has not been announced yet. You can only guess what it might look like by the name, and which game creator it might be most similar to. If you ask for my opinion, I think that the Arcade Scroller will be mostly similar to the Physics Puzzle Maker than the other available game creators.

Also, NPC1000 has contacted Geoff asking about any production on anything similar to a music creator. He responded with the following sentence: I think a simple music creator would be a great addition to Sploder. We'll see!. Seems like Geoff is putting some thought on a music creator. If you would like to know what NPC exactly asked, read the quote from below.

Quote

Dear Sir,

If you look in the "Ideas" category of the Sploder forums, you will realize that a great number of members have been requesting the same thing - a Music Creator. Since uploading music from your computer onto the games is a bust idea because of copyright issues and whatnot, I thought it would be a better idea for members to let their creativity flow and make their own! I think it is a great idea, personally, and I don't see any issues on how to program it. I really think this idea is one of the best lately.

If you could, please respond with your statement/opinion on things.

Shooter Creator on the iOS

Not too long ago, Geoff has explained that he might be able to get the shooter creator to function on both the iPad and the iPods (Newer iPods). That means that if he's able to get the iPad/iPod to talk to the shooter creator, you'll be able to make classic shooter games and play it on both the iPad and the iPod. If it was available for the specified Apple products, it could have a cost of $0.99 like the 2 new game creators but we're not sure. Geoff also said that the discovery was recent so he can't promise any close date of this. Geoff has also said that he might be able to get the Android as well. Though he is not sure because he didn't test the technology yet.

During his announcement, 2 users asked what he meants by 'newer versions' of the iPad and the iPhone. It has been said that the 'newer versions of the iPod' includes the 4th generation of its product. It has been also said that the iPhone also falls into the category, but most likely it will be compatible with the iOS5.

Quote

I'm excited to say that I've done some testing on a new technology that I came across and was able to get the original shooter creator and game running to some extent on the my iPad. This means that chances are very good that all original shooter games will be functional on the iPad (and newer ipods) at some point. I can't promise a date because this is very new.

New iPad Game in Production

Last month, Geoff has been talking about the iPad game he's been working on. The following twitter post game the clue:

Coming from his latest twitter posts, it also seems that the new game will have something to do with rotating the product.

Well, It's been a while since the Informer had an article. So let's have a reboot. What is the Informer exactly? Well, the Informer is a news kind of thing, where small pieces of news are placed. This was created before the forum transition and it was active, but I grew busy and forgot about it when I was running the gameshow. Remember to look through the articles in the other pages here, there might be some articles that you could find appealing.

Official Sploder Gameshow Trials 2012 Wrap-up

This gameshow ended around October, so if you're new, you probably don't know what this is. This was a gameshow started by Liamnight and ran by both Liamnight and Moolatycoon, with the gameshow having a survivor theme. It first ran on teams, then it broke up into a free-for-all game. This was one of the gameshows that finished successfully.

Credit to the hosts (and others)

First, let's give credit to all the hosts who helped out with the Gameshow. These helpful hosts helped start out the gameshow: Jackjoshseb, Elroyice, Lcraniuml, Okkeny, Metallica38, Superpiggy. And well, Liamnight and Moolatycoon for running it. And I would also like to give credit to the Generals who helped start the categories out and such. Also, credit to are private 'secret' hosts, who were Npc10000, Eclipserain, and Ppphantasm

Winner and Runner-up

The winner of the gameshow was Spidapig, with the runner-up being Jmc10. This was Spidapig's main response of his winning and at an interview:

Haha, ummm... Where to start...

Well, it was a fun gameshow. There were parts that were action packed and others that just seemed stagnant, but it was a great experience overall. I would like voice my approval towards the staff of the gameshow. It was a success.

Quote

The participants kinda came and went as expected. If I gave you a list of who I thought was going to make it to the merge before the gameshow started, I probably would've had 5-6 of the people correct. There were some plot twists, and levelorange proved me wrong. He was probably the best contestant in the gameshow. I also predicted Alonessix to get farther, but hey, you can't win em all.

I was really in it for the competition, and I got some. The teams were well set up, and I was impressed by a couple of the challenges. Yeah, fun times. I never expected to win. I always lost the gameshows I participated in. I remember the last one I entered, I lost in like the final 8, and Vinniepaz became the winner, and that disappointed me so I kinda used what I learned in losing to win this one, and I figured it out in the end. In the public vote part, I really expected to get booted out, so I worked to get in the lead. Don't even say I played a "shadier" game. It is a gameshow, and if it's legal, then it's fair to do so. All is fair in love war and gameshows. I meant no harm towards any of the gameshow, and I really don't harbor grudges against most of you (some of you i just don't like, but it wasn't because of the gameshow. you can figure out who for yourselves). Thanks for the support, and those fine bets on me. You can gladly claim your rewards. Hope to see you in Vault 67.

Spidapig out.

There was a bit of a twist at the end of the gameshow. What the juries were is that it had the eliminated users from the "Final 10", with a couple other users from the gameshow that made it more dramatic. The juries took a big place in the final challenge, where they voted on who should win. (Jmc10 or Spidapig)

The 2 teams fought in a fun classic game of Hurt or Heal. Team Blue ended up winning in the marvelous game of Hurt or Heal with about 5 users still alive. Team Blue has tasted victory while team Red had to walk the plank

Team Won: Team BlueChallenge Started: August 15th 2012User Eliminated: Flidsyufi Prize Picked: See GeneralSpecial Prize: words describing the next challenge, getting them an idea what the next challenge might be and possibly get them prepared, unless they get the wrong idea

The 2 teams fight in another classic game but it's invented by Wxg. With only a few min. before the bomb explodes, the team kepts passing the bomb from one another. Since there was always a close tie, it was unexpectable on who wins.

Team Won: RedChallenge Started: August 18th 2012User Eliminated: Jaggertoo Prize Picked: Special PrizeSpecial Prize: The next time the team wins, they can view more than the General category. (Ideas and RPFGs category etc.)

Annoyed at my team, not because they demoted me, but they could of got a different player due to I was inactive -_-

3. Large Collab: To Succeed or Collapse

The 2 teams had 4 days to create a game as a team collab trying to make a better game than the other team. During the Challenge, a hard-worked game from Team blue got mysteriously deleted. Did a user from Team Blue gave the password out? Did a user from Team Blue deleted their own game? It's unknown. At the end, Team Red won because Team Blue had nothing since the game was deleted. One of the Traitors were Tfandmetalmusic.

You made the right choice, Blue Team. I agreed to myself that I would've caused trouble, if I didn't already. I bid you a farewell, and good luck. Beat Red Team for me, and for everyone that was or is gonna be on the team.

See you later.

4. The Tyranical Trio

The remaining 26 contestants had a few days to try to get into 3 hard games as much as possible. The games were Lonely Roads, Quest Zone, and Oceans. Team Red was able to get into far into the game and provided many screenshots as proof. Team Blue sat arond hoping for another teammate to do the work, well I don't know, they did not provide any screenshots at all. At the end, Team Red won for the 3rd time in a row and Team Blue yet again votes off a few members. Uste, Kyleissocoollike, and Deathleaf gets voted off. Yes, their own team voted off their leader.

What Deathleaf says about getting eliminated:

Quote

Doesn't bother me hahaa, was no use to the team and was inactive more then ever before.

5. The Culprit

The gameshow gets into a lockdown with the 23 remaining contestants. 2 users who volunteered is taking a few users to hostage past each hour. The contestants must figure out who the culprits are before they all get captured. The volunteering culprits were Dale18 and EpicOrange789. Team Red won since they guessed the culprits first. Then after the gameshow was set back to normal, Team Red had to pick their selection of either General or Special Prize. They picked Special Prize and it brought misfortune. The Special Prize made it so that Team Red had to eliminate a user from their team instead. During the voting, Paradon the leader, tried to cheat by making it seem like General won during the prize voting. Paradon got caught and Team Red got a few punishments because of the Leader's cheating. After the voting ended for Team Red, Paradon and Ticktatwert was the top 2 leading users. Ticktatwert was picked and had to walk the plank.

What Ticktatwert says about getting eliminated:

Not particularly bothered now that I can see general.

6. Déjà vu

This challenge brang the contestants a choice on replaying another challenge. After voting, Challenge 4 ended up being re-played and the contestants had to play 3 new games. The 3 new games were Chapter I, Human Race Destiny, and The Insidiark. There was a close tie this time but Team Red won again for the 5th time in a row. Team Red picked the special prize and Team Blue picked Dale18 to be booted out of the gameshow.

What Dale18 says about his elimination:

Quote

I wanted to be out of the gameshow and I did.

7. Let's follow t' pirate's tradition!

Each team had 5 clues to figure out to find out the secret code. Spidapig from Team NOIS zoomed as fast as he can and led his team to victory. Team NOIS has finally broke the streak of winning from the Team Red and might turn the gameshow to a different outcome. Team Red eliminated their teammates and it led a tie with the leader, paradon, and Raider. The leader, paradon ended up to get eliminated. It seems like Troyio was the one who got Paradon eliminated.

Team Won: NOISChallenge Started: September 18th, 2012User Eliminated: Paradon (also known as Parry)Prize Picked: See GeneralSpecial Prize: Get the winning team to bring back an eliminated player and the losing team to eliminate another user

What Paradon says about his elimination:

Quote

I don't really care lol. But I don't think I was the right person to get rid of at this time. :3

8. Phun Physics

The 2 teams had a few days to collab on a game on the Physics creator. As of before in Challenge 3, an unknown user tried to sabotage their own team by trying to deleting the game. It took palce in Team NOIS. Spidapig recovered the team game by making a copy of the collab game on a seperate account. Then, someone gave his team collab password (team red) to a user, possibly Spidapig hoping to sabotage his team as well. Spidapig told his teammates to not do anything with the account and Team NOIS listened. Team NOIS won and Team Super Ponies (Team Red) lost. Team Super Ponies had to eliminate a user from their team and it was the newly volunteered leader, Stanleykitten. The users who in Team SP who keeps eliminating the leader is unknown, but it's possibly Troyio. The special prize was for them to eliminate a user from Team SP instead. Paradon, the previous eliminated contestant is a LT so he can see all gameshow categories. He told Team NOIS about the special prize so they would pick it. Paradon told Team NOIS because he hoped that Team NOIS would eliminate Troyio, the eliminator for Paradon and it worked. So, Stanleykitten got his butt saved by Team NOIS. Paradon also said that he is the one who deleted the game from Team NOIS, but it's unknown if that's even true or not.

Team Won: NOISChallenge Started: September 20th, 2012User Eliminated: Troyio Prize Picked: Special PrizeSpecial Prize: Get the winning team to eliminate the user from the losing team instead

I knew it. Had fun and disappointed I got out this early. Good luck to my bros, you know who you are. Also, don't think it is over.

9. Blur It, Change It, Distort It

The remaining 19 contestants had to guess on what the main object was in 15 images. The first one to guess correct on an image wins their team a point. Team SP (Team Red) got the first point but then the team got crushed badly by Team NOIS (Team Blue). At the tend, Team NOIS won and Team SP walked the plank for the 3rd time in a row. Team NOIS voted to pick 'nothing' and Team SP eliminated their new leader (Stanleykitten) and Cyrman. Stanleykitten was eliminated last challenge but got saves by Team NOIS because they picked the special prize, but he became unlucky again. Some brutal strategies some users have.

11. Mystery Boxes

The remaining contestants needed to pick which box they want where it might cause fortune or misfortune. For example, one box brings elimination and another box is a secret prize. Team NOIS picked both the 'team winning' box and the 'team losing' box so they don't get anything. Raider and Probe5 picked the 'Elimination' box so they walk the plank. The new leaders for Team SP that is going to replace Stanley because of his elimination is Alonessix, Jmc10, and EpicOrange789.

It was fun while it lasted. I just like to say good luck to the remaining people and hopefully there will be another game show or event in the near future!!

12. Fast Action

The remaining 15 contestants had to collab on an Algorithm Crew game that is 5 levels. They had to create a beginning stage, a testing stage, and a final stage game. They both did well, but Team SP did a bit better, from the host's vote. So, Team SP wins breaking Team Nois's winning streak. Since Team NS lost, they had to eliminate their teammates. Jackboymogura123 and Foghornleghorn02 was voted off. Team SP won, and they picked the special prize over general. The special prize was nothing though, bummer. But... the instant winning prize Team Super Ponies got from winning was to bring back an eliminated player from the Gameshow. Flidsyufi who got eliminated in Challenge 1 is brought back!

The remaining 13 contestants had to fight on a second and final game of Hurt or Heal. (First game was Challenge 1.) But instead of a team version of Hurt or Heal, it was a free-for-all game. Everyone fought, and each user did a good job. At the end, Sportsdude102 won and the prize for him winning was to get invincibility for the next elimination voting. Because Sports won, he got his team to win, which was Team NOIS. So, Team SP needed to vote off 1 member and it was one of their team leaders, Alonessix.

Team Won: Team NOISChallenge Started: October 13th, 2012User Eliminated: Alonessix Prize Picked: There was no prize picking this roundSpecial Prize: None

Results:

Sportsduded wins with a remain of 1/8 HP.

What Alonessix says about his elimination:

Quote

I'm not angry at anyone besides myself. I'm angry at myself for letting me become a target by JMC and his crew... But I suppose there's nobody who can fix it now. Good luck to Spida, he was my ally. So, concluding, I'll say that I had fun and that's good enough.

On the final challenge when the players play as teams, they must do a final collab on puzzles. They needed to collab on about 5 puzzles varying from each creator. Both teams could not finish the puzzles in time so they both needed to eliminate 1 user from each team. From Team Super Ponies, 559369 got eliminated. On Team No One Is Safe, the gameshow victor of the 'island', who is Vinniepaz, got eliminated.

I'm a little sad. I expected to be voted off eventually. I wasn't really going for the win though, just for fun. ;3

What 559369 says about his elimination:

Quote

Voted off? Well, I was not really active anyway. I am actually happy that I made it that far for not really contributing to anything. Goes to show how much my teammates were actually paying attention, lmao.

15. No More Teams

The teams are merged and the gameshow is now moving to the free-for-all stage. The users got a break during this challenge because the users from the Lounge chose on who gets eliminated this time. After the poll ended, it was shown the Flidsyufi, the user brought back a few challenges ago, is eliminated.

A fast-paced challenge inspired by the well-known ball game of dead or alive. Basically a host 'throws' a ball and the users must post to claim it. The game ended quickly with Spidapig winning, so he won invincibility from elimination in the gameshow. After elimination voting, Milking and Sreebrothers had to walk the plank.

Feeling sad, anyway I should have been eliminated long time before and the ones who are not eliminated deserves to continue because they have the talent. If I was not eliminated this time a another person who deserves to continu will be eliminated, so I think was right choice eliminating me was a right choice. But I will miss the fun and spirit of gameshow. Best of Luck to everyone who are not eliminated.

17. The Fifth Wheel

The lucky 7 users left needs to pair up with a limit of 2 members in each group. Since there is an odd number, a user will be "group-less" and that user will be eliminated. Quickly, Spidapig teamed up with Jmc10 and Jacmas teamed up with Sportsdude105. With that being grouped, Drummer, EpicOrange789, and LevelOrange011 were the users left not grouped. With Drummer and LevelOrange not being online at the moment, EpicOrange tried to team up with someone waiting for them to come online. Drummer decided to team up with LevelOrange011 instead. All in all, EpicOrange789 was eliminated.

I didn't expect it really, but everyone's time in the gameshow runs out sooner or later. I don't really think I deserved to be eliminated, however everyones time in the gameshow ends. I'm not really too bothered.

18. Cash Fever

The 3 teams teamed up from last challenge (LevelOrange011 and Drummer, Spidapig and Jmc10, Jacmas and Sportsdude105) and they played a game of deal or no deal. Sounds familiar? It's from the popular real-live TV gameshow of Deal or No Deal. What basically happens is that the 3 teams must pick cases every few turns and the cases the cases they pick gets 'eliminated'. After all the cases are gone, the remaining case is the amount of points the team will obtain. Though, every so often, deals will pop up where if you accept that deal, you take that amount of points instead and their turn is over. At the end, Team LevelOrange011 and Drummer lost by 50 points and they went to elimination voting. LevelOrange011 got eliminated at the end with 2 more votes than Drummer. Team Jacmas and Sportsdude105 got the most points so they won invincibility for elimination voting next challenge and they do not have to participate next challenge.

User Won: Jacmas and Sportsdude105Challenge Started: October 22nd, 2012User Eliminated: LevelOrange011 Prize for winning: Invincibility for next challenge's elimination and does not have to participate next challenge

Look, guys, I really don't care that I got elimanated. My primary goal of this was to enjoy the oppritunity to hang with my friends and ultimatley have fun. This was all a new experience to me, and I'm glad I got to enter the realm of this new gameshow and dive further into the depths of it's challenges. Winning was never an option. Up against 37 members, I'm immensly proud of even making it past the merge into the Top 6. But hey, what goes is what goes. Don't get mad. Don't rage. Just let the path of life take it's course amongst your journey. This was my very first experience with a Sploder Gameshow and I'm happy that I got to be here for it. I never even expected to get in. I could have been the happiest man in the world. But when the time comes, the time comes. Thanks to Liamnight and Moolatycoon for making my Gameshow experience the best it can be. I can't wait for the next one. And GO DRUMMER!

19. Scavenger Hunt

Credit to Jackjoshseb for suggesting this challenge. The remaining 5 contestants (but only 3 plays this challenge because of last challenge's prize) needed to hunt for answers in the forums and this challenge could be related to a trivia-theme challenge. Spidapig finished the challenge 28 minutes later and the challenge was over. Elimination passed by and Drummer was eliminated.

Jacmas, Sportsdude105, Spidapig, and Jmc10 was voted on by everyone to choose who gets eliminated, and 2 gets eliminated this challenge. At the beginning, Spidapig and Jacmas were in the 'Danger zone' of getting eliminated and for Spidapig got users to vote the other contestants by bribing the users with potential features and platinum awards. At the end, Jacmas and Sportsdude105 got eliminated with 46 and 51 votes.

Vote #1Caster: EpicOrange789Recipient: Jmc10*Reasoning: I think that he's played the better game. However, he had dishonesty when explaining about Jotreo or whatever. However, spidapig was also involved in that.

Vote #2 Caster: JacmasRecipient: Jmc10Reasoning: Obviously, I think he may have just wanted some sweet revenge after being campaigned against in Challenge 20.

Vote #3Caster: FlidsyufiRecipient: SpidapigReasoning: I guess he wasn't taken out twice by Spidapig.

Vote #4Caster: ParadonRecipient: SpidapigReasoning: No idea. Maybe Parry just likes Spida more? Only the highest can see that itmoi's reasoning.

Vote #5Caster: Sportsdude5Recipient: SpidapigReasoning: Perhaps he felt betrayed. At first his vote was to Jmc, but he changed his mind later on.

Vote #7Caster: StanleykittenRecipient: SpidapigReasoning: Perhaps it was because of Jotreo, idk. Stan mentioned "I like the way JMC played more, and he was on team ponies with me and I want more than anything to have a pony member win, but I really think Spida might have him beat."

Voter #8Caster: LevelOrange011Recipient: Jmc10Reasoning: First off, I would like to apologize to Level, but it would flow better to show his vote. I know he had a tough time choosing.

Voter #9Caster: SreebrothersRecipient: SpidapigReasoning: Idk.

Voter #10Caster: LiamnightRecipient: Jmc10Reasoning: N/a

Voter #11Caster: TroyioRecipient: Jmc10Reasoning: Spidapig voted him off and lead against him. Nuff said.

Vote #12Caster: DrummerRecipient: SpidapigReasoning: I know you wanted it privately, but hopefully they are both mature enough not to get all butt hurt over a gameshow.

Vote #13Caster: MoolatycoonRecipient: SpidapigDescription: After looking at both of their styles I thought things over for a while. Jmc played a good honest game, but didn't really prove himself to deserve it that well, Spida played a shadier game, and did some not so nice things, however I feel he played the better game, and he brought up some really good points and rebuttals in Challenge 21 Phase 1.

And, for those of you who can't count.... CONGRATULATIONS TO....

Champion Spidapig

Spidapig>Jmc108>5

One of the upcoming game creator is the Arcade Game Creator. The creator will have seven different game-play types which are all variations on the side-scroller but with different player types/vehicles and objects [*]. The planned seven game-play types has not been specified, except for one. One of the types will be the Platformer Creator, (a new one) which will be released earlier as a preview of the Arcade Creator. It is aimed to be released for the week after Christmas [*].

Platformer Creator - The Arcade Game Creator

During the new years holiday of 2012, Geoff came on and went to Tinychat. He went on camera and showed what he's been working on for a bit. What he showed was the Platformer Creator in production. From the users were who online in that chat, users described it as 'more smooth' and 'less rough', compared to the original platformer creator. Unfortunately, none of the users who where online during that time took a screenshot of it.

The full platformer creator (not the preview) will be set to be available on both the website and on Apple Products. They include Iphones, Ipads, and Ipods. It will have a cost of $0.99 on the App Store, and the following updates are most likely going to be free.

The creator is set for for long, narrow playfields, for horizontal scrolling. It is currently being testing with a grid of 192 blocks wide by 24 blocks high. It could go wider. [*]. A video preview was released not a while ago as well, link.

If you saw the preview from the link above, you could tell that it has a big difference. It is indeed 'less rough' and 'more smooth', and it can be related to a similar game pattern as the original mario series. You can tell that the player did not loose any health from lava, and that is because the game rules have not been written yet [*] .

The player of the character is also found when you reload the chat of the forum, spotted from a user a few weeks back.

Other Game Creators

Geoff has also stated that he's been working on an RPG platformer game creator but stalled it for certain reasons [*]. Geoff has also stated in the comments that the creator is complete non-linear. That means that the storyline isn't a straight line. For example, Minecraft is a non-linear game.

A few months ago, Geoff has explained that he might be able to get the shooter creator to function on both the iPad and the iPods (Newer iPods). That means that if he's able to get the iPad/iPod to talk to the shooter creator, you'll be able to make classic shooter games and play it on both the iPad and the iPod. If it was available for the specified Apple products, it could have a cost of $0.99 like the platformer game creator but we're not sure. Geoff also said that the discovery was recent so he can't promise any close date of this. Geoff has also said that he might be able to get the Android as well. Though he is not sure because he didn't test the technology yet. During his announcement, 2 users asked what he meant by 'newer versions' of the iPad and the iPhone. It has been said that the 'newer versions of the iPod' includes the 4th generation of its product. It has been also said that the iPhone also falls into the category, but most likely it will be compatible with the iOS5.

Also a few months ago, NPC asked Geoff about a simple music creator. He replied with the following statement: I think a simple music creator would be a great addition to Sploder. We'll see!

Twitter Posts

From Geoff's twitter account, there are a few posts that he might have been referring to the upcoming game creators. Let's check them out.

Why can't I see the entire twitter post? Fake! Not, it is not fake. The reason why the last one has the entire twitter post but the others don't is because I didn't have time to make it look pretty.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but the gameshow is not happening anymore. Spellmage, the main host, cannot run the gameshow anymore due to problems in real life (I will not state the problem was, since it was in the Barracks). The only way to keep this gameshow alive is if one of the hosts want to continue the gameshow by themself.

New Pics

So a few more pics of the new creator arrived a few days earlier. Be sure to check the article with up-to-date info on the creator!

Game Being Tested On Apple Products

A recent twitter update posted in the official twitter account, shown up above, talked about the product it's being tested on. The picture that was linked to it was the first picture in the 'New Pics' section of this article. Since it's being tested on a phone, and in the explanation of the small fingers, the penny was probably added to show how tiny the screen and the objects are.

A new image teasing the new creator [2 hours ago] has surfaced on the Sploder official account of Facebook, with the message "Yay! Tunnels are working!".

On Geoff's Official Twitter account, he showed an image of his errors he encountered:

Now you're going to ask, What does this have to do with the creator?. First of all, the new creator can also be played on the apple products (Iphone, Ipod), and the first error says "Missing Retina 4 Image Launch", and the Ipad 3 and the Iphone 5 uses retina display, therefore, it shows that Geoff has been working on the apple products also!

Nice work Geoff!

A plan established by 7Grant2, taking effect on soon, will result in the removal of the Lounge and change around a few more things. Looking forward to have a Hero Member rank? Was your plan removed since the Lounge is getting deleted? Don't be! Hero Members are tied with the new plan.

Also, before the game creator was released, teaser images were released on what Geoff had so far. Some of those teasers aren't in the creator yet. Are these enemies and images/videos a clue to the future world types?
